The Atlas' Super Duty-inspired grille and hood are present, but the "chunkiness" of the Atlas' styling is toned down slightly for the production model. However, the window-sill dip, a hallmark of the current F-series trucks, and also featured on the Atlas concept, remains. The rendering also realistically includes conventional sidesteps, likely to be common on bread-and-butter XLT models, as opposed to the more expensive power retracting sidesteps offered on the more upscale Limited and Platinum trims.

In terms of what's under the hood, we don't expect many radical changes, but there's a strong likelihood the thirsty 411-hp, 6.2-liter V-8, at least in its current form, won't carry over. Bet on an EcoBoost V-6, and probably an updated 5.0-liter DOHC V-8, in addition to the standard 3.7-liter V-6 being among the powertrain offerings.
